Wow these were the most delicious muffins although when we made them we forgot the jam so we just spead some on after and they were amazing. We used Strawberry jam with ours. Definatly try out this recipe! TY Carrie -
Just fabulous! I made 12 muffins and 12 mini muffins from this mix. Of course I probably used twice the amount of jam too! I used apricot jam and on 3 of the mini muffins I tried some nutella as well which was nice. These are really pretty. I can't wait to try it with different jams! I added a bit of applesauce and an extra splash of milk to the mixture too as I found it needed a bit more moisture while mixing.

Really good. Almost like a banana cake taste. I used apricot jam as a filler and it went very well with the banana flavour. Moist and easy to do. I have some frozen in the freezer but I doubt they'll stay there long. Thanks Carrie Ann -
A really nice change for a banana muffin. I used raspberry jam in the center and the tartness of the jam and the sweetness of the muffin made them yummy! I'm going to try an extra banana next time to kick up the banana favor just a touch.

This is a great recipe. It's very easy to make (my kids love to help) and the muffins turn out perfect every time. I also love that there's no need to get the beaters out. I used two large bananas I had in the freezer and all-fruit instead of jam. The thought had crossed my devious mind to try a little Nutella instead. :) Thanks so much for posting this one! It's going to become a staple recipe in my collection.

Sorry these didn't work out for me-the jam bubbled up and overflowed & got stuck on the bottom, too! I used strawberry preserves instead of jam; maybe that made a difference. Thanks anyway!
